Made possible by funding from Metro Council, Pet Community Center’s campaign launches in conjunction with World Spay Day on February 24, 2026
Nashville, Tenn. — In conjunction with World Spay Day on February 24,
2026, Pet Community Center is launching a targeted campaign to help reduce pet overpopulation and pet homelessness in Davidson County.
Pet Community Center’s campaign, which is made possible by funding from Metro Council in its current fiscal year budget, will allow residents living in zip codes 37217, 37013, and 37211 to be eligible for $15 spay/neuter surgeries for their pets while appointments last.
These three zip codes represent the areas of the community that had the highest rates of intakes at Metro Animal Care and Control (MACC) in 2025.
Brandon Dyce, Pet Community Center’s President/CEO, commented: “As we prepare for Global Spay Day, we are incredibly grateful to Metro Council for funding that allows us to make a meaningful and measurable difference in pet overpopulation and pet homelessness. Ever since our clinic began 15 years ago, PCC has used intake data from Metro Animal Care and Control (MACC) to inform our approach to accessible veterinary care here in Davidson County.
“By targeting pets living in the 37217, 37013, and 37211 zip codes, we can reduce unplanned litters, decrease the ongoing problem of pets straying from home, and ultimately alleviate the number of animals needing rescue support in our community. This grant allows us to take a bold step towards reducing pet overpopulation and pet homelessness in the areas of greatest need—and allows us to keep pets where they belong: in loving homes.”
Davidson County residents living in these three zip codes can visit Pet Community Center’s website and book their pet’s surgery online, while spots remain available.
World Spay Day is an international campaign that advocates for the advantages of spaying and neutering pets to prevent pet overpopulation, as well as the emphasizes the benefits of spaying and neutering, which include improved pet health, reduced animal intakes at area shelters and rescues, and a decrease in the number of healthy animals being euthanized.

I love how clearly you explain your pet campaign strategies it’s as practical and impactful as guidance from top CV writing specialists for landing your dream role.
Great initiative, especially targeting the specific zip codes with the highest intake rates—that's a smart, data-driven way to make a real impact on pet homelessness. It's always good to see funding used for such a clear, preventative approach. Using data to solve complex problems efficiently is something you see across many fields; for example, the fraud prevention case study at seon.io/resources/case-study/soft2bet/ shows a similar principle of targeting resources for maximum effect. Hope the campaign is a huge success and helps lots of pets find their forever homes.
